About Us

The 130th Glasgow Company, The Boys' Brigade is a youth organisation based in Broomhill in the west end of Glasgow, Scotland. Our three age sections all meet on Friday nights during school term time and membership is open to boys between the ages of 5 and 18. Each section runs a packed but varied programme of activities and events that is not only energetic but challenging and enjoyable.

Company Section October 2017

With the new session now well underway, we are expecting another busy year with Company Section consisting of around 17 boys ranging from P7 to S6.

For this reason we are delighted to welcome back three boys who reached the Brigade age limit and have now returned as staff sergeants.

Lachlan Callen, John Law and David Molloy ended last session by gaining their Queen’s badges, and now have the opportunity to pass on their experience to younger boys.

Midweek activities are already underway, with the District Five-a-side Football event held in mid-September which saw our team win the competition, achieving six wins from six games. Congratulations to the boys involved.

It will be followed on October 9th by the District Sports, also at Scotstoun, which will see boys from across the District competing in a series of track and field events.

During the year, the attention of our oldest boys will also be on gaining their Queen’s Badge. Varnit Gupta, Alistair Meldrum, Dhruv Shah and Fergus Watson are halfway through working towards the award and will be completing work this session.Between now and Christmas we also have a number of other events taking place, and we have one eye on the first Church Parade of the session which this year will take place on Remembrance Sunday, November 12th.
